The Experience

In our everyday activity we need help with cleaning and preparing the rooms but it is as important as chatting with the guests and making them feel welcomed here. Everything in the place is in constant change - we are rebuilding and rearranging things all the time, so sometimes we need help with building, painting and preparing to open our roof terrace - this means growing plants and doing different craft projects!

I stayed for three weeks and had a great time! The work is very easy and it was always clear what the tasks for the day were. We would work max 4 hours a day but if we finished early (which we usually did), it meant more free time for us! The girlies working at the reception are friendly and ready to share their recommendations with you or just chat. Most likely you'll meet some cool people at the hostel to spend time with. Tartu is a nice calm city with different cultural events and good connections to other places for day trips. I will miss the hostel and I recommend it to any volunteer! 💚

The work was not hard at all and the working hours were less than they state. Most of the time work was done within 3ish hours, with a couple days even being 1-2 hours, depending on the amount of tasks needed done and volunteers working in a given day. The city is a quiet city for the most part, the nightlife is quite lively however. It was my first volunteering and my first solo travel experience, and overall I had a good time!
